We have Buxus about 15 inches high approx 4 years old. About two years ago in winter we had very bad weather and some of the Buxus turned brown and died. Some areas of the Buxus are doing this again. With the level of rain we have been having they certainly dont need watering but I wanted to know if there was any special care that is needed through winter.

Any help would be great.

Kind Regards

Ok the lawn seems to be very bumpy with broken surface like mini mole
hills and soil coming up through grass. The grass is not fine and
there is a hard clay base about 8 inches below.

I completely weeded the garden about 4 months ago and it was in much
better condition before this.

If anyone has any idea about this strange condition please message.

If you want guesses about what is digging up your lawn it would be an idea
to say where you are. A photo as well would be even better.

You already know, you have moles/voles. The real question is what can
you do about it... mostly depends on the size of your lawn.

Hi

Update on this.

I am not sure its moles as the bumps are gradual and about 8 cm.

The ground is quite dry and hard and although the lawn is green it is very dry underneath.

I wanted to see id Scarifying the lawn would help.

Any help on this would be great.
